I'm moving in a little over a month, and I'm starting to think ahead about "cleaning house" as in getting rid of stuff. I have a tendency to just throw everything into boxes telling myself I'll sort it later, and then I end up with boxes of crap that I obviously don't use often enough, but a lot of it I can't stand to…

you know how when you read/hear about an injury, sometimes you imagine it happening to you and that part of your body, like, winces?

I love your stories, and sometimes feel nostalgic for the days when dating a guy two years older was A BIG DEAL and made you feel super bad-ass.

not period-related, but a similar awfulness... my current (almost 6 yrs now) bf and I had just started dating, and he got the flu, which meant in our new couply glory, I got the flu too. I was at my grandmother's, sitting on the toilet with awful diarrhea when I had to vomit, panicked, and picked up the trash can. it…

dude. deep.

I've been living in a basement apartment just for a little over a year, and the bf and I are moving to an above-ground place with honest-to-gosh windows and an actual bathtub - I cannot contain my excitement.

wow. I knew that, and I am shocked and embarrassed that I even typed that.

I am laughing so hard at this story my bf is yelling at me for shaking the couch.

ugh I HATE the gush! and you're right, it's never the disaster it feels like!

I was in middle school and still relatively new to the whole period thing. I hadn't exactly planned ahead when it hit, and I decided to make due with a wad of toilet paper (who am I kidding? I still do that). We had to do the mile run or whatever it was for that Presidential Award shit I hated, and I went out and…

you'd be shocked at the random things you could find the-same-but-different-variations on stock photo sites. to the point that there are also sites dedicated to mocking them.

I have been stubbornly cranky all night, and then this comment squeezed a giggle out of me. Thank you, kind stranger.

zombies could use pads to soak up the blood from their wounds to get through a job interview (hey, it's tough out there for the undead) or a frantic fresh vampire trying to hide her neck wounds shows up to a party with a pad taped to her neck because the gauze wasn't leak-proof - how embarrassing! OR two ladies going…

What I really don't get is why people name boys after their fathers, but never name girls after their mothers.

I plan on both taking his name and keeping my own. I'm just gonna stick his at the end, so I can still be "Mrs. Hisname" when it's easier, but I'm retaining my own identity. I'll be Firstname Middlename Myname Hisname and that's okay with me.

this is what I plan to do! (except I still have a middle name, so I get 4? I remember kids getting a second middle name when they got christened or something, so if they can do it so can I) I think it's so cool that your family does this, especially since when I explain it people look at me like I have 3 heads

I shoot video with the 5D for a living now, and we rarely bother with 8gb cards. mostly 32gb, with a handful of 16gb for backup. CF cards go up to 128GB now. the C300 records on dual CFs (hotswappable, apparently)

yes, take @annainwonderland's advice, and for your own sake, don't worry about it! one of my biggest pet peeves at weddings is when people keep telling the bride not to cry. it's your wedding! it's just makeup! and there are ways to wipe your tears without smudging your eyes (fold tissue, use edge to dab along tear…

obviously I don't know how this guy worded his contracts nearly a decade ago, but most photographers/videographers have clauses about situations in which, if they can't get the shot, they can't get the shot. shit happens. on top of that, I'm sure he had a time limit (the photogs we normally work with usually have a…

zombie-human sex has been addressed in other movies to varying degrees of traumatization. Fido is probably my favorite, for the neighbor's obviously sex-slave zombie who he really loves deep-down (badumcha!) but I'm still not over the horror of I, Zombie, where our hero is slowly becoming a zombie while pining over…
